TDS on rent

Hi, can someone please tell me about Notification or Circular issued by Income tax on deduction of TDS on Rent including Service Tax.

We are paying Rs. 120000/- p.a. as rent, hence not deducting TDS on it. However, since Service Tax is applicable on rent , party is charging Service Tax on Rent, but asking us not to deduct TDS, as there is nothing specified in the Act.

Please guide me, urgently..

but if he wants not to deduct tds then he must apply to the assessing officer for not deducting tds or deducting tds at a lower rate as mention in sec. 197 ...
